My cousin is due with her second baby in late May and I think I will be attending the baby girl’s baptism. Here’s the thing though, I only remember attending baptism’s with my parents as a kid, so I don’t even know what sort of unique baptism favors that the parents don’t already have, to give the child as a gift.
The first things that come to mind with a birth of a baby, the first birthday, or baptism is always cute clothes that they get an exorbitant amount of already, or a stainless steel piggy bank. engraved with their initials or something.
But what I’m thinking of is perhaps their first Tooth Fairy pillow.
I remember what my Tooth Fairy pillow looked like when I was younger, I think my Brother and I shared it – but I could be wrong. It was fluffy heart, covered in pink and white gingham with lace trim around the outside and a little pocket for where the tooth went.
But I’m not sure if I would give that to a four month old baby, or however old you are when you give baptism gifts to the child. Does anyone have any tips on what to give this kiddo?

I’m no help…I’d have no idea! I’ve never bought a Baptism gift before. I’m guessing you could never go wrong with a Bible embossed w/the recipient’s name on it. They certainly aren’t going to be able to use it for awhile, but at 4 months that’s the case with most anything I’d guess?
